Alice Moore is a teenager entrepreneur(創(chuàng)業(yè)者), who in May 2015 set up her business AilieCandy. By the time she was 13，her company was worth millions of dollars with the invention of a super-sweet treat that could save kids' teeth，instead of destroying them.

It all began when Moore visited a bank with her dad. On the outing, she was offered a candy bar. However, her dad reminded her that sugary treats were bad for her teeth. But Moore was sick of missing out on candies. So she desired to get round the warning, "Why can't I make a healthy candy that's good for my teeth so that my parents can't say no to it?" With that in mind, Moore asked her dad if she could start her own candy company. He recommended that she do some research and talk to dentists about what a healthier candy would contain.

With her dad's permission, she spent the next two years researching online and conducting trials to get a recipe that was both tasty and tooth-friendly. She also approached dentists to learn more about teeth cleaning. Consequently, she succeeded in making a kind of candy only using natural sweeteners, which can reduce oral bacteria.

Moore then used her savings to get her business of the ground. Afterwards, she and her father secured their first business meeting with a supermarket owner, who finally agreed to sell Moore's product-Cancandy.

As Cancandy's success grows, so does Moore's credibility as a young entrepreneur. Moore is enthusiastic about the candy she created, and she's also positive about what the future might bring. She hopes that every kid can have a clean mouth and a broad smile.

Meanwhile, with her parents' help, Moore is generally able to live a normal teenage life. Although she founded her company early on in life, she wasn't driven primarily by profit. Moore wants to use her unique talent to help others find their smiles. She donates 10% of AilicCandy's profits to Big Smiles. With her talent and determination, it appears that the sky could be the limit for Alice Moore.

8. How did Moore react to her dad's warning?

Londoners are great readers. They buy large numbers of newspapers, magazines and books — especially paperbacks (平裝書), which are still cheap in spite of ever-increasing rises in the costs of printing. They still continue to buy "proper" books, too, printed on good paper.

There are many streets in London containing shops which specialize in book-selling. Perhaps the best known of these is Charing Cross Road in the very heart of London. Here bookshops of all sorts and sizes are to be found, from the celebrated one which is said to be "the biggest bookshop in the world" to the tiny, dusty little places which seem to have been left over from Dickens’ time. Some of these shops stock or will make efforts to get any kind of book, but many of them specialize in second-hand books, in art books, in foreign books, in books on economics, politics or any other subjects about which books may be written. One shop in this area specializes only in books about ballet.

Although it may be the most convenient place for Londoners to buy books, Charing Cross Road is not the cheapest. For really cheap second-hand books, collectors must venture off the beaten track, to Farringdon Road, in the East Central district of there is nothing so impressive as bookshops. The booksellers come along each morning and put lots of books onto small hand-carts (手推車) which line the streets. The collectors, some professionals and some amateurs (業(yè)余愛(ài)好者), who have been waiting for them, run quickly towards the books. In places like this one can still, occasionally, pick up for a few pence(便士) an old book that may be worth many pounds.

When you're meeting someone for the first time, you want to leave them a good impression. 16． However, it's not just your mouth doing the talking—the way you hold yourself is just as important. Here are some tips on body language to show positivity and kindness in communication with others.
